Slide 3: Anti-C1q: A Unique Neuroprotective Mechanism
Anti-C1q: A Unique Neuroprotective Mechanism C1q initiates the classical complement cascade to drive photoreceptor synapse loss, cell loss and neuroinflammation • C1q is a key driver of neurodegeneration1 C1q binds stressed photoreceptor synapses and activates the classical pathway • C1q anchors cla
